Treaty of Westphalia
Who: France's Cardinal Jules Mazarin and his great protégé ean-Baptiste Colbert. Colbert's
What: In my opinion it is the system that helped form all the states today. "In view of the currently collapsing world financial system, which is tearing apart the Mastricht Treaty, European governments have a last opportunity to abandon the failed Anglo-Dutch liberal system of private central banking and globalization, and organize the new Eurasian axis of peace centered on Russia, Germany, and France."
When: Between May-October 1648
Where: Modern Day Germany
Why: " To solve the collapse as sovereign nation-states with a common interest, their historical foundation is the 17th-Century Peace of Westphalia"
2.

Summary of Global impact of Nationalism: After the French and British began to be come strong independent nations, other nations were influenced in attaining independence as well. The Ideas of liberal values spread very fast. It attracted Italy to trace back all of their states and become a nation along with the help of other nations by forming alliances. Austria and Prussia were two big states that were initially allied, ended up in war. Prussia strived to become a nation under any circumstances. Prussia bribed France and Italy into staying out of the war, giving them more advantages to winning. Nationalism helped in global expansion and in the start of imperialism as it made the citizens of each said country the drive to make their nation "better", and created a competition amongst surrounding nations to be at the top. It fueled imperialism through it's individual support to better its own country rather than a world wide feel.

Which of the data sets above do you think is the most significant? Why?
The most important one would be the Index Numbers of World Trade because it shows how the world has progressed and economically developed, elaborating on trade routes etc. Although it is significant that the years of life expectancy increased and the number of iron production raised, all of these tie into the trade index and are major contributors - a longer life expectancy and increase in iron production leads to industrialization and urbanization.
Taken together what do these data sets tell us?
It tells us that urbanization and industrialization start to, and have taken place in the world and how the "old world" is moving into modern times. People are living longer, industrialization is taking place (iron), and the economy of the world has evolved into a more interconnected system.
It was a series of changes during which production increased, populations rose, on a global scale.
What was its origins?
It originated in Britain around the 18th century while E ideas ere floating around Europe.
What were its major effects?
rapid growth of cities
expansion of economy

It shows that Germany had successfully imperialized many areas surrounding its region; creating a dominant power far larger than any out there - ruling out Great Britain, France, Belgium, etc. It also shows that Europe in particular harbored most imperialistic thoughts
- power is no longer dependent on how big a nation is in size, it is how much control a nation has OUTSIDE its borders.
- Austrailia is totally occupied, & Africa, one of the largest continents that is populated/has government/tradition is over 90% controlled.
8. Define Imperialism in your own words:
It's when a nation extends their influence and power upon the government and economy of another nation/region.
9. What were the motivations for Imperialism?
- Nations thought that they could gain more power, guarantee a role in world domination
- Economic reasons (goods/trade of that nation)
- Get more land
10. Before note-taking, look for the following key terms (not in the glossary!) and define them in your own words.
The British East India Company - Created under the English Royal Charter to pursue the East Indies
Sepoys - Indian soldiers that serviced the Europeans

12. Write a 1/2 - 1 page summary where you explain the connections between Nationalism, Industrialization and Imperialism
Nationalism, industrializaitaion, and imperialism were all intertwined, they all depended on each other to occur. Nationalism spurred imperialism. When countries became nationalistic, people had pride in their country and thought they were superior to everyone else and their surrounding neighbors. Therefore, imperialism - the spreading of ideas and expansion into other territories supported ideas of nationalism - they could do so because they were superior to everyone else. Imperialism depended on nationalism to occur because if there was no nationalism, no one would feel the need to take over surrounding countries if they did not feel as though they were superior and had the right to do so. Industrialization links both nationalism and imperialism in two ways: without industrialization, soverign states would not have the ability or production power to seize other territories on the scale that imperialistic nations did. Because of industrilization, imperialism stirred because of the need for manufacturing of goods and the profitable perspective countries now had when looking at surrounding nations around the global community. Also, when imperialism occured, it was usually a better off and more stable nation that took over a weak, vulnerable nation and therefore the dominant nation would spread technology and ideas, colonizing lands such all around the globe. Therefore, although nationalism might be able to stand on it's own, nationalism, industrailization, and imperialism were all dependent on each other to match the products of events that occured in the indsutrail era.
